Our History
The story of Association de Bienfaisance Sauvons la Génération (ABSG) begins with a vision to protect and uplift the most vulnerable children around the world. Our founders recognized the urgent need for organized humanitarian intervention to address the challenges faced by children living in poverty, neglect, or dangerous conditions. From humble beginnings in Le Mans, France, ABSG has grown into a respected humanitarian organization with a far-reaching impact.
In the early days, our focus was on understanding the most pressing needs of disadvantaged children in Africa and other underprivileged regions. Initial projects included distributing food, clothing, and medical supplies to communities with limited access to essential resources. These early efforts highlighted the importance of combining immediate relief with long-term development to create sustainable change.
As the organization grew, ABSG expanded its scope to include education and child protection initiatives. We recognized that providing children with access to schools, books, and qualified teachers was essential to breaking cycles of poverty. Similarly, we established orphanages and safe shelters to provide stability, emotional support, and protection for children who had lost their families or were living in unsafe environments.
Our history is also defined by community engagement and partnership. From the beginning, we worked closely with local leaders, educators, and volunteers to ensure that our projects addressed real needs and respected cultural traditions. By involving communities in planning and decision-making, we built trust, created sustainable solutions, and empowered local populations to take an active role in improving their own circumstances.
Over time, ABSG expanded into water and sanitation initiatives, constructing wells and improving access to clean drinking water in communities where waterborne diseases were common. These projects have had a profound impact on the health and well-being of children and families, reducing preventable illnesses and improving quality of life.
Throughout our history, ABSG has remained guided by core values of compassion, integrity, equality, and accountability. Every project, partnership, and donation is managed with transparency and a focus on measurable impact. Our accountability ensures that supporters, donors, and volunteers can trust that their contributions are making a real difference.
Our journey has also been shaped by the global humanitarian network. ABSG collaborates with international agencies, non-governmental organizations, and local partners to leverage resources, share knowledge, and maximize the effectiveness of our programs. These collaborations have allowed us to reach more children, implement innovative solutions, and create a sustainable model for humanitarian action.
The history of ABSG is not just a record of projects and achievements—it is a story of hope, resilience, and determination. Every life touched, every child supported, and every community empowered reflects our ongoing commitment to our mission. As we continue to grow, we remain dedicated to protecting the most vulnerable, fostering opportunities, and building a better future for generations to come.
